they didn't get their SB, though.
oh i agree with you...i LOVE Tessa, but Scott's just such a mixed bag...i appreciate him for speaking his mind - most of the time - but his word choice are just so off-puttingSorry, I really do love and adore Tessa, but Scott really turned me off with his post-GPF cry me a river rant. Very bad sportsmanship from him at that moment!
Tanith has a great outlook on the outcome. Considering her connection to D/W I think that's a better summary than some of the others we're reading/hearing.

(i commented back on IN at the time about it...Scott just sounds like a whining baby when they don't win...and not humble, and when they win he acts like they should...it's just really hard to like him as a person b/c his media personality isn't appealing. Like i wouldn't mind if he criticized things, but he's so serious about it, that it's comes off as very abrasive and defensive)
Shouldn't the components also reflect the fact that V/M free is basically the most forgettable among the final group? :disapp:

I don't think the lowballing of Davis/White has anything to do with Virtue/Moir. I think the recent hinted at reeducation of judges regarding PCS may have involved actual examples and admonitions, and possibly one of the teams being singled out for getting overly high PCS is Davis/White. If this is true, it'd be interesting to see how Patrick Chan gets scored tomorrow. I predict his PCS will be quite a bit lower.
For those who don't think there's something amiss, I remind you again that this is Davis/White's second lowest FD score of the season, after what is their best performance of it (only their disastrous 4CC FD scored slightly lower). Something is amiss here.
